3D Printing Manager

About the Team Droyd builds autonomous robotic systems that automate repetitive manual work in real environments. We design and manufacture our hardware in-house, which means iteration, fabrication, and execution all happen under one roof. Rapid prototyping is a core part of how we develop hardware, and 3D printing is one of the fastest ways we turn ideas into parts. Our hardware team relies on printed parts for iteration, fixtures, prototypes, and test setups – keeping that operation running smoothly has a direct impact on engineering speed. About the Role As the 3D Printing Manager at Droyd, you will own the day-to-day operation of our printing workflow. You will keep printers running, manage materials, and make sure printed parts are produced reliably and on time. This is a hands- on operational role for someone who likes keeping systems organized, running, and improving over time. You will work closely with engineers and technicians to support rapid hardware iteration. This role is based on-site in San Francisco, CA. In This Role, You'll Print Operations Own day-to-day operation of the 3D printing workflow Manage print queues, part prioritization, and machine uptime Prepare, monitor, and post-process printed parts Meet turnaround expectations for engineering and prototype builds Maintenance & Materials Handle material management, including storage and filament care Maintain printers and troubleshoot common failures Keep machines tuned, calibrated, and ready to run Team Support & Improvement Work closely with engineers and technicians to support rapid hardware iteration Help improve reliability, throughput, and organization of the printing operation Maintain an organized, safe, and efficient print area Work Environment & Schedule On-site in San Francisco, CA Full-time Compensation 75K–105K base salary, plus equity We're Looking For Candidates Who Have hands-on experience with 3D printing workflows Are organized and detail-oriented Can keep multiple machines and priorities running smoothly Are comfortable troubleshooting and maintaining hardware Work well in a fast-paced prototyping environment Nice to have: Experience supporting hardware, robotics, or prototype teams Experience with printer maintenance and tuning Experience managing print queues or shared shop resources About Droyd Droyd builds autonomous robotic systems that operate in real production environments. We design the hardware, develop the control stack, and generate the data that enables generalist robotics. If we do this right, robots stop being demos and start being infrastructure. Join us and help build the systems that make it real. #J-18808-Ljbffr
